Crafts and Ice Cream and Presents... oh my!

Another quick look back on some of our summer...

We had Zoe's birthday party (early in July) with her friends at our local ice cream parlor.  We had her party at the same place last year... and it was just so good we decided to do it again.  Even Zoe wanted an ice cream party again.

The kids all show up and immediately started a craft (Zoe picked out the treasure chests since she is big into collecting "treasures").  The amount of concentration in the room was amazing.

After finishing the craft they all took a turn at spin art.

Then they all had pizza and juice boxes.  (Oh... and Zoe picked out the purple/lavendar theme)

A quick few games of ice cream bingo.

Every child got to pick out whatever flavor of ice cream they wanted.

There were tons of toppings to choose from.

Zoe loves ice cream WAY more than cake... so she was thrilled to blow out a candle on her ice cream sundae.

Ana was pretty happy with the whole idea of pizza and cake, too.

And when the party was over... the presents were packed up for us to bring home.

I would say, once again... perfect party.  I love it because the ice cream shop does EVERYTHING.  They set up, they do the craft/spin art/tattoos, order the pizza, provide the decorations and plates, set up the sundaes, do the clean up, etc.  All you have to do is show up... have fun... and then go home.  A fabulous party.

I think Zoe agrees.
